Good power, make sure to spec your converter properly
Love the sloppy stage 2 cam, this bumpstick is great for the price. Highly reccomend buying the genuine article. Make sure to ignore your cam bearings.

Makes more power
Definitely pulls harder on the top end. I have a 3000 stall converter and they are great together

Real deal Elgin
Came in oem box, quality looks good, slid right in and has just the right amount of lope, good sounding cam

great cam check pushrod length
to save someone some time and hassle.. I installed this in a lm7 5.3 with 7.400 pushrods..I believe this pushrod length is gonna be fine for me.. but I could have used a little longer..I could not find a definite answer when searching for what length I needed to order with the cam.

Can't beat it for the price
Put one in a 6.0 and it has a nice mild lope, has no issue supporting the power brakes, and absolutely loves NITROUS!! Most people use it with a turbo, but I tried it with a nitrous car. With nothing at all changed, but the camshaft, the car went 1/2 second quicker, on a 50hp less nitrous jetting...

Awesome cam
Packaged well, awesome cam. I installed in my 4.8 LS truck. You will need a tune. Fast shipping, great product. Thanks!

Poor quality
The front bearing journal was under the low limit for size, and was even smaller than the two stock cams that I have that have a half million miles between them. The finish on the lobes was not as good as I expected an there were some small black dots that looked like inclusions in the metal that were not completely removed by grinding. Unfortunately I waited to 1 day too long to return it while waiting for the manufacturer to get back to me.

Nice lope !
Put this in a 5.3 68 elcamino. Has a nice lope at idle . Pulls strong from 3000 rpm to 7000 . Would recommend!

This is a proper camshaft unlike most of the other china junk listed on Amazon. Went in nice and dyno great!

The cam shows that the surface hardening has been done after manufactured a key point to wear issues and failure, overseas cams a cheap for a reason, cam lobe failure can cause a complete engine failure.

Cam came in great shape. Put this in an lq4. With 706 heads (5.3 heads higher compression) ls7 lifters. Ls7 head gaskets. with the msd box and a 650 Holley carb. Made 525hp on the dyno. Can’t beat that budget build.
